    Hello, I am very new to this forum. A few years ago I acquired these toys. If you could give me some feedback on these and what they might be worth I would greatly appreciate it! tQRaGA7.jpg 6v2zWvA.jpg dx4zxWH.jpg g5HV3vO.jpg M9ey2TK.jpg n1ghugl.jpg QAPcRd0.jpg qTriS6q.jpg RmOiVnW.jpg S75rTgC.jpg SFmZ2DK.jpg T1P0Rx9.jpg t7IJOmZ.jpg tQRaGA7.jpg TThiP2T.jpg Wud8WxR.jpg 16118573_1237468599667097_475675676_n.jpg tQRaGA7.jpg 6v2zWvA.jpg dx4zxWH.jpg g5HV3vO.jpg M9ey2TK.jpg n1ghugl.jpg QAPcRd0.jpg qTriS6q.jpg RmOiVnW.jpg S75rTgC.jpg SFmZ2DK.jpg T1P0Rx9.jpg t7IJOmZ.jpg tQRaGA7.jpg TThiP2T.jpg Wud8WxR.jpg 16118573_1237468599667097_475675676_n.jpg

    Sorry for the photo quality. I was in a rush and can take better ones if needed.

    Those pictures are really hard to look at. But your most valuable piece is Liokaiser (the set of six Decepticon jets and tanks that combine), I can tell you that right now.

    Aside from that, the names are on most of the packages. All you have to do is research ebay for the "going price". But you have a fair few that range in around $100-200 and a few that stray closer to $500. And LioKaiser can run around the $1000 mark, depending on the condition.

    Thanks, I rushed those photos. Had a lot of stuff to do today. You're right, I can do a lot of the footwork myself with google. Figured I'd toss these up here to see what kind of feedback I could get. Thanks for the replies.

    How do people who know nothing about them acquire these? I look all the time and never find anything that good.

    The most valuable stuff you have there are the Japanese exclusive vintage and reissue figures, in terms of relative value I would rank them in descending order as:

    - D-335 Liokaiser giftset
    - TF05 Sixtrain
    - GiG Diaclone Auto Robot Porsche 935 Turbo
    - C-310E Fire Guts God Ginrai
    - C-307X Nucelon Quest Superconvoy
    - C-317 Landcross figures
    - C-383 Micromaster set / C-344 (I'm actually not entirely sure of the individual value of these, @brr-icy and @Hyperoptic can help)
    - Classics Motormaster
    - MIB G1 Ironhide
    - Japanese Scramble City Aerialbot C-52 Fireflight / Protectobot C-72 Blades

    Know squat all about the relative value of the others :D 

    All the best
    Maz

    They are worth negative money and likely radioactive, send them to me I will take this terrible burden off of your hands. In all seriousness...
    To be clear, I'm not an expert (if there is such a thing) but these prices are based on ebay listings obtained through google search. You caught me on a boring rainy day and I felt like being helpful.
    First Image
    Liokaiser, and seeing how there are no complete sets on ebay that I can find at the moment he is likely going to be worth $500+.
    The second image from left to right, top to bottom:
    First one is the Takara "Military Team", no idea on the price.
    Second is Takara Dash and Tracker, I've seen them on ebay ranging from $75-100.
    Third one is Takara Italy Rasor he's going for about $100 on that link.
    Fourth one Micron legends Convoy, he's worth about $30 on ebay.
    Fifth one is Takara's Fireflight, I saw a couple of listings for him at about $200, though I doubt that's a price that will sell him.
    Sixth one is MIB Ironhide, I'd wage $100+ based on the listings on ebay and the quality of the box (can't quite tell).

    Third image
    Botcon CatSCAN, worth about $60 based on multiple ebay listings.

    Fourth Image
    Fireguts God Ginrai, there are two on ebay going for about $700 though I doubt they'll sell at that price.

    Fifth Image
    Takara God Neptune, I saw a couple of listings going for $200+ but based on the packaging of your figure I'd wager it would sell for much less, probably around $100.

    Sixth Image
    Supreme Cheetor, worth less than $40.

    Seventh Image
    Superlink Galvatron, worth about $75-120 based on ebay prices.

    Eigth Image
    Botcon Sentinel Maximus, worth about $200, give or take.

    Ninth Image
    Nucleon Quest Convoy, worth about $175-300+ based on ebay listings.

    Tenth Image
    Superlink Megazarak, based on ebay listings he's going for about $200, though I doubt he will sell at that price.

    Eleventh Image
    G1 European/Australian packaging Motormaster, the regular packaging figure sells for about $150 in good condition but I don't have a good idea of what this variant would be worth. Based on how damaged his packaging is, I really don't know if you'll get too much for him, but I could be wrong.
    Twelfth Image
    Clear Convoy, worth about $80 based on ebay listings.

    Thirteenth Image
    Of the two new ones, Micromaster Sixtrain, no idea on the value.
    Takara Zone Build Base, no idea on the value.

    And since you have doubles on the images, the dinosaur three pack is Magmatron, I see some listings going for about $100-150, but I think your copy is the Korean version and worth a fair bit less. The last image is Diaclone pre-"Jazz", I saw a loose listing go for $50 but I would wager a MISB copy could be worth quite a bit. Hope this was helpful.

    If I found a G1 Swindle with a missing arm and 3 wheels at a garage sale it'd still easily be the best surprise find of my toy collecting life.

    Is a there a club for people who are lucky to get modern stuff with free shipping?

    Borrowing @Maz 's list, I can help you with the japanese stuff.

    I deal a lot in Japanese G1, so these prices are their going rates at the moment, all in USD

    - D-335 Liokaiser giftset 1200-1500 depending on papers, stickers applied, or gold plastic damage on Killbison
    - TF05 Sixtrain 200-250 depending on presence of papers and if the stickers are applied
    -- C-310E Fire Guts God Ginrai 250-350
    - C-307X Nucelon Quest Superconvoy 200-250
    - C-317 Landcross figures 60-100
    - C-383 Micromaster set 100-120 depending if the papers are present
    - C-344 25-50

    Most of them I don't see applied labels, so as long as they're present, you're looking on the higher end of those

    Guys, sorry that the images were all screwed up. I did this in a rush today. I did take some time to look a few of these up so thanks for confirming what I had seen. Thank you very much for the feedback I appreciate it!

    Also as far as I know most/ all of these toys have the appropriate paperwork and stickers still in the box.

    A friend who worked at a flea market gave them to me after he could not make good on a debt.

    @OP...it's hard to tell which of these maybe sealed or open. What's the low down on that? If some are open you should take a pic of contents because that's where your bottom line is going to be.

    Yeah these photos are bad. Some of them have original tape that has broken. The ones in that condition I have opened carefully and they have all the pieces, paperwork and stickers in them.

    I am not sure but he thought the lot was worth around 700 usd when he gave it to me. At no point was he attached to these toys so it was not like I was breaking his heart with this deal.
